15. Andrena (Melandrena) nitida (Müller, 1766)

Listed by

Meena & Dey (2019): Bihar.

Remarks

Andrena nitida is a predominantly West Palaearctic species, extending into Central Asia only in Kazakhstan (Gusenleitner & Schwarz 2002; Osytshnjuk et al. 2008). The listing from Bihar is not considered to be plausible, and the species is excluded from the Indian fauna.
